Of course, you can’t say Sinema anymore because she left the party.

here’s the thing— I love the Grand Nagus, but I can’t stand Ferengi episodes. It’s… a conundrum.

lol and you’re claiming you have no bias?

where did I say that? I’m just not using it to justify ruining the lives of strangers,

It’s not an “interpretation”, it’s the definition of the word:

vengeance

noun

  1. Infliction of punishment in return for a wrong committed; retribution.
  2. Punishment inflicted in return for an injury or an offense.

Eye for an Eye

That’s against the law in the United States (and pretty much everywhere else) and will land YOU in prison.

For all your posturing, you don’t actually care about the law at all. You just want to hurt people that you don’t like.

the alt-right movement is like an abusive relationship, made up of a bunch of very insecure people constantly seeking approval from an abuser who doles it out with an equal amount of degradation, keeping them confused and isolated enough that they have no choice but to keep coming back because - after having driven everyone else away with their hateful rhetoric - the abusive alt-right is now their only source of “community” at all.

it’s a cult.

re-establishing the Fair Reporting Act would do a lot to help by stemming the tide of the likes of Fox News, Newsmax and OANN, not to mention a long list of AM and satellite radio stations that blast fascist propaganda 24/7

oh, we’ve got a felon in the family. … hence my opinion.

so, you admit that you’re speaking from a heavy personal bias, not from a place of reason. and, just because you clearly have strong feelings a negative judgement towards this family member, you believe all felons should be treated this way.

and that’s precisely why you shouldn’t be making these decisions for others. in a court of law, a judge would recuse themselves for having such a bias, jurors would be dismissed, and it would be grounds for appeal for a defendant because the law recognizes that such a judgement is fundamentally unfair. so should you.
